Yo brother im on 12 mg. What do you recommend if i wanted to taper myself off or etc? Much respect and i also co parent amdmy little boy helps me too and im with you on the smoking and coffee
I recommend taking the taper at your own pace. It depends on how fast you want to go or how determined you are to quit or how much suffering you want to go through. People taper with little or no symptoms but it can take years to taper that way. I’d say Cut it in half and then in half again when you feel comfortable. 12mgs are strips right? So that is good because it is easier to cut them up. My best tapers were when I would jump off till I couldn’t take it anymore and then I would cut my strip into 8 pieces and leave them on a plate in the cabinet and eat one a day when stuff was getting hard. It worked well but it was hard. Just a tiny dose goes along way to ease symptoms because the recommended dose in the united states is ten times then recommended dose in the uk. I think we take way too much. Taking small amounts is better than jumping all the way off.
You can taper from 12 mg a day down to 4 pretty painlessly. I would say reduce by 2 mg a week until you get down to 4 and then go down 0.5 mg/week from there. Till you get to 0.5 mg/day then go down 0.1 mg a week. The easiest way to dose it is to dissolve the strip in a small container of liquid and dose it by squirting the liquid under the tongue. You can dose very accurately this way down to a tenth of a milligram
Day 12 for me and I still dont sleep, I'm lethargic, and I got that deep yuck feeling. Cant explain it but it sucks bad. I do walk my dogs now and cook and clean. Dont eat much still
I know the yuck feeling. Lol No need for explanation. I went to work with two backup pairs of socks for a year because of the sweating Its funny ... When withdrawing, all day I just wanted to sleep but when I got to bed I couldn't. I'd flop like a fish out of water in my bed all night. I didn't really sleep more than 4hrs most nights for a while and that's if I was lucky and wore out from the day. Everyone is different. But one day at a time. Keep moving. Walking dogs and or riding bikes with the kids definitely helped me. Its the best medicine. Especially for restless legs. If you've made it to day twelve I know you can make it 12 more!! And the second twelve will be easier. Don't give up. My heart is with you.
SoSam1012 I am feeling pretty good today! started a new job so I am a lil busy. hoping to get an update uploaded soon. I'm on day 20 now and I feel hungry for life! I haven't felt that hunger for years. my symptoms are minimal. I think it's easier once I decided that feeling shitty was ok. It it gets a lil better every day. my legs are still tight but not nearly as bad as before. I am sleeping so that is awesome! and it's so much easier to wake up now! thanks for messaging me! stay strong. .It's worth it! Talk to you soon!
SoSam1012 How are you making out? Sticking with it? I am still going strong! It's been tough. I just wanted to check back with ya. I am on day 24. Still getting stronger every day.
Im on day 12 , using kratom for the 2nd time...life saver!! I cant remember how long it took before the RLS hell stopped! Do u remember? Bout a month or so?
Cramping was bad and restless legs is this weird feeling you get in the hips and thighs. It’s very uncomfortable. It comes from not moving around enough.
Omgeez , I went to day twenty without being able to eat then I got hungry for protein cravings, meat, eggs and protein shakes. I am glad you said that. It takes forever for these long term opiates like subutex to get out of your body. How are you doing now?

“Don’t mind fuck your self and say you can’t do it ! Just power thru it” best advice ever given for an addict in withdrawal.❤️

Restless legs? Do you mean horrible cramping?
